CHOOSE: NOT TO CHOOSE!

Okay. maybe "choose not to choose" sounds like an oxymoron of sorts----but when it comes to choosing to believe all things you hear, exercise caution. Feelings can easily trump truth and many people spout off opinions or others, including celebrities, as if it's "gospel truth."
Somethings are just Hogwash!

------it's a good place to go to wash off hogwash germs.
It's also common to hear sayings attributed to the Bible that are not part of God's word.

Money is the root of evil! Hogwash! Money can be used for good or evil. 
It's the love of money that is the root of all kinds of evil. (1 Timothy 6:10) Greed and power hungry come to my mind.

God helps those who help themselves is another such bit of "hogwash."
"Thus says the LORD, 'Cursed is the man who trusts in mankind And makes flesh his strength, And whose heart turns away from the LORD.' " (Jeremiah 17:5)
God helps those who depend on Him and call on Him and His strength in their weaknesses. (2 Corinthians 12: 9-11)

The only "real truth" is God's truth. The rest is "Hogwash." 

Therefore, I choose NOT to choose---NOT to let "HOGWASH" distort truth!
